No Fuss Skimming

Having a pool is a blessing and a curse. There's something about lounging in the pool after a long week of work, but there's always maintenance and cleaning that comes along with it. While I appreciate the exercise (no I don't) of manually skimming the leaves and grass clippings, there are some days I just want to get in the pool and relax!
We have only had the Wybot F1 Cordless Skimmer for a short time but so far, we have
been very pleased with the results. The F1 Skimmer did a good job collecting all the leaves on the water surface and the solar charging functionality is much better than I expected! We'll really put it to the test this spring with Alabama pollen that coats the pool surface. The pollen is super fine and even the pool net doesn't do a great job collecting it. But having the Wybot running constantly will be a huge improvement in how the water looks.
I would say that the Wybot F1 is attractive and futuristic while the functionality is smooth and easy to use. I feel like we're living in the future with this and the cordless pool cleaner. Now I can spend less time cleaning and more time relaxing with family and friends.
I would recommend this to a friend

Cool concept, underwhelming execution

The idea of this product is awesome. A solar powered leaf scoop to keep your pool clean. Who doesn't want that? In execution I was really underwhelmed in the performance. Three overall experience is missing several features that would make it feel way more premium.
In the box you get the robot and that's it. Which this is my biggest issue. The robot does not come with a charger. I somewhat understand that it's a solar charging robot, but I find the lack of a charger a ridiculous omission, especially if you but this in winter which I did.
Since I don't have a charger the only way to charge this is too or it in the pool and wait for the sun to charge it. The only problem is the lack of sunshine in the winter. Because it's this the robot is constantly dear, I'm not even sure if it ever reality runs. Everytime I connect to it there is less than 10% battery.
If it would run the features seem reality cool, it connects to wifi, should run continuously, and does a really cool job to keep your pool clean. Unfortunately all I see is a dead battery.
